This is a great little video for all to watch! It's about the priesthood being granted to all worthy male church members of every race. It's a good video in and of itself, but the neat thing is that our ward here in Chicago is featured in it! A while back some camera men from Salt Lake City came and filmed our entire Sacrament Meeting, and they chose our ward due to its diversity. We knew it would be used for church purposes, but didn't know exactly what, so I'm quite excited to finally see it put to use! (Thanks Danielle for sharing the clip.)
One of the people featured in the video, Cathy Stokes, was a wonderful member of our ward but now lives in Utah. She says a lot of great things. You can see our ward towards the beginning and also nearer the end of the video. At about minute 1:10 the sacrament is being passed, and if you look super closely you can see part of the back of my head. :) (just look for the blonde). All the boys passing are who Josh works with in Young Mens. At minute 5:02 to 5:05 there is a wide shot of our chapel and you can see Josh and I. It's hard to spot us quickly, but we're sitting in the fourth row from the front, on the end. So there you have it, my 4 seconds of fame. :)

Wow Melanie, what a powerful video. Thanks for sharing. And your hair looks great in the video! :)
Thanks for posting that. What a wonderful video! How fun to see HP 1st Ward again. I think I'll have to show it off to everyone I know, too. ;)
How fun! I'm glad I saw that post on your blog. I wondered when that video of our ward would be used. Very cool.
